The reason you guys can't win 10bb is because of all the small ball poker u play. Min raises, 1/3 bets, etcc. U bet small, play small pots, and u are going to win small.

If you are this clueless about modern poker, why should anyone take your RNG FUD at all seriously?

this statement proves you know nothing about modern poker and you have no idea what you are talking about.

[QUOTE='Darki[Per];58540518']this statement proves you know nothing about modern poker and you have no idea what you are talking about.[/QUOTE] Think about it the win rates are higher in pot limit Omaha why is that? because most people don't make min raises or one third pot size bets. Most times in pot limit Omaha people are raising pot and their betting close to the pot so it creates bigger pots bigger pots means higher win rates.

it doesn't mean that, bigger pots just means higher standard deviation, not higher winrates good regs have higher winrates in PLO because recreational players make bigger mistakes in PLO and there is a larger gap in skill level between regulars in PLO than in NLHE

I am saying just do the math. The reason people win more money and live poker at the same stakes it's not necessarily because the players are worse, which they might be it's mostly because the pots are bigger. If you're going to keep the pot small you're going to win less money that's just simple math. I don't understand why people online don't get this. The win rates at pot limit Omaha are bigger because nobody makes these small bats. So most of the hands are heads up just like six Max hold them but the win rates are at least double. You have to ask yourself why. The reason is because they don't make the small bats the parts are always bigger because people are betting pot or close to pot

dude if you bet 20% on flop and 100% on turn in a 3bet pot, you're not "keeping the pot small" just because you c-bet 20% you still end up all in by the river

Jungmit isn't worth engaging. He's already demonstrated he doesn't understand math with his RNG fixing rants. He's also missing the forest for the trees on why the average per street percentage bet sizing at PLO is generally larger than NLHE. Amazing he's been on these forums since at least 2007.

That could be true, but u get a ton of folds on turn with the bigger bets. So u win more pots but they are smaller. So at 200nl u raise to $4 pf. Get 1 caller pot is $8. Flop u bet say $3 villain calls. So $14 in pot. Turn u bomb $20 u get a ton of folds so u win $14 less rake and half of the money u put in. Now say u raise to $8 of one caller u already got $16 in this pot. U cbet $12 get a call pot is $40. So this over and over and your win rate will increase.

The average street in PLO is bigger because people bet more. 1. To make people pay to chase. 2 to protect hand. 3 they afraid of getting sucked out on.

No the people playing live is worse. One very big evidence of this is that the rake is usually extremely high live. If online sites had the same rake structure games wouldnt be beatable. 2nd no pot size doesn't matter, you could technically play smaller sizings in PLO and play wider ranges. Or play bigger sizings in NL and tighter ranges.

If online sites had the same rake structure games wouldnt be beatable. 2nd no pot size doesn't matter, you could technically play smaller sizings in PLO and play wider ranges. Or play bigger sizings in NL and tighter ranges.

The games would not be beatable online with a bigger rake because the parts are smaller. If the pots are bigger the rake is less of a factor. So all the men raising and one third pot bets keep the pots small. If you were playing 200 no limit hold'em and the average part was $120 the game would be beatable if the rake was $7 a pot just like in a live game. In live poker the pots are bigger that's why it's beatable with a bigger rake. Back before Black Friday people were crushing games at 15 and 20 big blinds per hundred hands. How are they doing that? Well the average raise back then at a one two game was to like 10 or 12 dollars pre-flop it wasn't $4 like it is now. So just for math sake if you win a $30 pot and a site takes $3 in rake it's 10%. But if the pot is bigger like say $85 and they take a $3 rake well that's way less than 10%. As soon as you get the pot over the maximum rate amount the rest of the money is pure profit because there's no rake on it

Here is an example of the cheating that happens all day long at 200NL: BTN raises to $6, I make $23 from SB, BB makes it $44, BTN call $44. BB that made it 44 had 109o, BTN had AA. The entire point is to get me in a 4 bet pot when one of them knows the other has the nuts. There is basically no hand that I can 3bet from SB and not call another $21 there and they know that. They stack me and both accounts instantly leave.

I was probably a little out of line with my exact hand but that doesn't change the dynamics of the hand. They know that a lot of times the SB is just going to jam and get in, and if they call they are in a 3 way pot with you with an SPR of about 1.

Maybe I am just out of my element then. For those that play on other sites and Bodog - is it really that common for people to cold call so many 3bets/4bets? Maybe that is just how online poker is in 2024 and the game has passed me by. Open to that conclusion.

Appreciate the feedback b/c honestly I did not think of that in game but that does make sense thinking about it now. Maybe it was just a spew in a standard spot.

Are you suggesting there isn't a ton of bots at the tables and collusion taking place? Because I can assure you there is and it can easily be proven with evidence. Imo it's completely warranted for players to be suspicious of spots like that these days. The truth is if you play on this network you're regularly getting cheated, you're often going to be at a table with multiple bots who also blatantly collude. Whoever manages the poker room has shown no signs of a desire to improve the game integrity issues. If you choose to play here you need to come to terms with that reality and accept that you're getting cheated while playing here without future compensation being likely. If you can win there despite the cheating and choose to continue playing there then good for you, but the players who have been cheated playing there are right to voice their complaints about the cheating which will act as a warning and hopefully a deterrent to any players who are considering depositing to play there in the future.

Which site, BetOnline? Just FYI I stopped playing there over a year ago when they raised the rake. Not only that, but I called them out about their own botting issues for years until they finally eradicated them. I also called them out on numerous other issues here in the forums the whole time I played there. I've never been an affiliate for them or any other site. I have no allegiances to any site. Nice try tho. It seems you are in fact the shill for this network if you can't admit to the obvious cheating taking place.

And yes, you're correct that I've been saying this stuff about this network for years. The reason for that is the bots that are the problem everybody is aware of now because of how infested the tables are with them now have actually been there for years. Some people here didn't seem to care that much in the past because the games were still softer than most other options. Over the last year the bots have altered their strategies and started to employ even more blatant collusion tactics. Also the recreational numbers have been declining for a number of reasons which has made the number of bots present more obvious to others. The potential for serious game integrity issues at this network has been obvious to me for years. I'm honestly shocked it took this long for the games to completely deteriorate. Every shitty commercial bot site has listed this network as the one with the lowest security for a decade.

Expand Tweet Then here is some more collusion I've come across at the tables in recent months.

(Hero)CO opens. SB 3bets. BB calls. ^

BTN opens. (Hero)SB 3bets. BB cold 4bets. BTN goes all-in. ^

(Hero)UTG opens. MP calls. CO calls. SB calls. BB squeezes. ^

(Hero)CO opens. BTN calls. BB squeezes. CO calls. BTN goes all-in. ^ All these involved accounts exhibiting the typical bot characteristics during their time at the table. None of them were playing like recs. And this is only a small sample of what I've seen from them in recent months.

Totally happy for you that you can still win a lot of money but you're a ****ing dingbat if you think there's not significant collusion/botting going on rn across all the sites, and ****in delusional if you don't think Ignition/Bovada aren't of the worst.

LMAO OK, bro. Feel free to expound on why I'm clueless/don't know anything about poker based on screenshots showing obvious collusion instead of ad hominem insults. If this stuff is all normal to you then you live in some bizarro universe. Based on your join date I incorrectly assumed you were likely a long-time online reg with an understanding of how normal poker games operate. My mistake. I now understand what level you're operating at.

Just in case a Windows Update or something blacks or blues out your W10, or, probably, your W11, computer and you can't access it at all, I found that if you switch off your computer, then switch it on and, almost immediately you see it starting up again, switch it off; then repeat this at least four times, sometimes a few more, watching for an information screen to open, which comes because the computer thinks there is a boot up error. Using one of the offered options, you can then open System Restore and restore your computer to a previously working state. Job done.

Hi guys. I am pretty new player but I wanna know if there any websites for real games without bots? I played on 888poker and pokerstars and they both looks as a scam. After 1 and a half hour of winning games I started loosing. New players were coming and I was loosing.

Been playing well and running well. Made back to back deposits of 300 and 150 out of my roll to play some 25nl. Went to withdrawal today and my account was disabled pending review. Pretty funny this happens when I'm winning and bitcoin is skyrocketing. If they seize my money on the site like what I've seen with other players on the internet, that will be the final straw for me. They'll see what's up big time, i promise you. I've got nothing left to lose these days. Regardless of outcome- I'm done. This online poker **** is more shady than dudes in the **** could ever be, I've seen more honor from a stripper. Honestly, I miss it more than anything, only time i was ever happy. So, **** it, you are what you are in life, no point running from it. Ill just play live for fun on occasion, because I still like the game, but there are much better way to make a living- this isn't one of them. Make your bed in the morning, you lay in it at night. At least at the end of the day I can say I truly tried to change, I'm just not a good person at heart anymore, and its impossible to be that guy again. Cant say its been a pleasure. See most of you in hell.

For anyone who can't remember why, for example, C(11,3)C(39,2) should equal 122,265 this might help: C(n,r) is often written as nCr and it equals (n!)/[(n-r)!r!] (note: n! is spoken as "n factorial" and means multiplying all the numbers from 1 up to n together; so if n = 4, n factorial would mean 1234 or 1x2x3x4 or 4x3x2x1 or 24) which for 11C3 means (11x10x9x8x7x6x5x4x3x2x1)/[(11-3)!3!] or (11x10x9x8x7x6x5x4x3x2x1)/(8x7x6x5x4x3x2x1)x(3x2x1) (note: you can simply cross off the (8x7x6x5x4x3x2x1) from the end of the (11x10x9x8x7x6x5x4x3x2x1) without having to multiply them both out, which will give or (11x10x9)/(3x2x1) or 165 and for 39C2 means (39x38x...)/[(39-2)!2!] or (39x38x...)/[(37x36x...)x(2x1)] or (39x38)/(2x1) or 741 so 11C3*39C2 or C(11,3)*C(39,2) or C(11,3) x C(39,2) or 165 x 741 equals 122,265.

I know most of you here are sharks 🦈, but for anyone new to the game or looking to learn the basics, this might be a simple way to get started. ItÂ’s live now on the Google Play Store, totally free, with no ads or paywalls.

For the Puzzlers: "This year's Christmas Challenge features seven puzzles designed to test everything from codebreaking and mathematical analysis to lateral thinking and creativity – the same blend of skills our teams use every day to keep the country safe. "We've designed the puzzles so that no one will find them all easy! Some will suit analytical minds, others require creative leaps or perseverance. That's entirely intentional – we want groups of classmates, families and friends working together, combining their different strengths to reveal the final festive message."

No. That would be regarded as "spam", and is likely to result in your being banned. Obviously, if everyone that is a poker agent posted their spam here, we'd need rain boots to wade through the posts. However, you may spam to your heart's content in your Profile - as long as you do not refer readers to your Profile. If others think your posts are consistently interesting, helpful and informative, they are likely to look at your Profile of their own accord.
